I just watched Manchester United in a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Portsmouth. I have not felt so damn near a heart attack in quite a long time, but this really throws the Premiership title race wide open (fuck!). Chelsea is just 3 points away, and with 6 games left, it's really down to who has the mental strength to finish strong.With the season just about to end in another month or so, both United

At the waiting room, overhearing 5 Indian ladies taking a lunch break and gossipping among themselves. My back was turned towards them, so I have no idea who said what, but I'll just identify my target in bold.Lady: Did you know, XXX's newborn baby was diagnosed with testicular cancer? One on testicle.Another Lady: Oh, poor thing. That's why XXX look so sad when he came in to work. So the doctor

I realized something about myself today. I actually get things done faster when I put them in a list. That really explains why I've felt more productive ever since I have gotten my PDA.I was in the habit of using written lists back in college, and I think I was really well-served by it, considering I never missed an assignment deadline (and if I was close to missing it, at least I knew I had to

This riddle was written by Albert Einstein in the 19th century, as claimed by the article in the link. Apparently, only 2% of the people in the planet could solve the riddle.Well, I managed to get the correct answer to the riddle, and probably any self-respecting Sudoku player will be able to get the answer by a little bit of PnP (Plug and Pray).Have fun!

Nothing much happened lately.Well, except for the fact that my favorite dog at home, Macho, died 2 weeks ago, due to suspected poisoning. The vet has no idea what killed him, but the autopsy showed copious amounts of yellow liquid in the stomach.So, its a mystery how Macho died, but I'll just eulogize by saying:You were a good dog. Although you were somewhat retarded and I always liked to mess

So the Jasin Member of Parliament tells Malaysian Customs, "Hey, you're confiscating my shipment. Just close one eye and no one will know anything, yeah."More than half a year onwards, no action has been taken against either Jasin MP, or the Customs Department.One for making a government agency neglect it's rightful duty.One for actually neglecting it's rightful duty (to deny the request, and to

MCMC is "confident" that mobile number portability will be available to cellphone users by December next year.That's December 2007, ladies and gentlemen.This was supposed to happen last year, according to The Star Online, so I think this time, we should all pretend to be pleasantly surprised that there is an initiative to remove the monopolies that a telecommunications provider has over their

I redesigned the site again. This time, change the color scheme, add a banner, and change the layout just slightly.There have been complaints that the previous design was boring, sterile, and I gladly accept those comments (in fact, my girlfriend just confessed that she thought it was kinda boring as well. :P) I was just starting out on CSS then, so my skills were pretty basic.For the past month,

The Malaysian Censorship Board has done it again. This time, it has affected the June 19th 2006 edition of the Time Magazine. Previously when boobs and bare-asses were censored with the black ink, I would not hesitate to state that the Censorship Board are run by dumbasses who cannot tell the difference between pornography and nudity. This time however, I do not know what is underneath the black

So, Jamie Woo, I am finally posting again!By the way, I'm off to Singapore tomorrow for a 3 day vacation. 3 guys, staying in Geylang (Singapore's famous red-light district).

Will be off to Sydney for a week-long holiday and to attend my sister's upcoming graduation from the University of Sydney. She studied to become a IT professional. (If I knew what I knew now, she would have made a better choice, marine biologist *wink wink*)So anyway, I will have to be up at 4.30am to drive my ass (and my parents') from Ipoh to USJ, then take a cab to the airport.

Was at Kota Kinabalu for a weekend vacation last week. Some people like going to a city and enjoying its sights and sounds, some enjoy going back to nature, and some absolutely love going to the beach. Well, this holiday, we did it all. The city of Kota Kinabalu (KK) was actually quite small, it really didn't make much of an impression on me. Nevertheless, we had pretty good seafood there, and

This coming April will be the 1st year anniversary of this blog. When I first started, I envisioned this blog to be satirical, making fun of everything under the sun, hence, the name Sampah Nonsense. As time passed, and posts grew, the blog doesn't really have a specific format now, with postings about the stupid things politicians say or do, current events, and even about my fish.There was never

During the party's working council, Kimma (Malaysian Indian Muslim Congress) had decided to submit a memorandum to seek affiliation with UMNO. The party's president, Amir Amsaa Alla Pitchay is reported as saying that the decision was taken because "Indian Muslims in the country have no representation at the state or federal level" (Which they managed to self-contradict themselves once again, see

Wow, I just had to say something. It's 30 cents! This certainly affects my monthly expenses to the tune of approximately RM50. As for the expected increase of other goods and services due to the cascading effect, I have no idea yet.http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2006/2/28/nation/13525389&sec=nationHow does it affect the rest of everyone?

If you're a frequent visitor to this site, you would have noticed that the design has changed once again. I've just finished reading The CSS Anthology by Rachel Andrew, and I just want to put my new found knowledge to some practical use. It's not much right now, played around with some column layouts using floats, finally understanding the differences between margins and padding, nothing really

Yes, that's 1 measly USD. It came in the mail today, as a reward if I filled in their survey. I could have chosen not to do the survey, but since they were sincere enough to pay me first, I did it (and it only took me 10 minutes to get $1, as compared to Adsense, 2 clicks so far, $0.24, not even a quarter).This reminds me of the days in college, when I used to troll the Fatwallet forums just

The First-time Manager by Loren B. Belker and Gary S. Topchik is an EXTREMELY useful book for those who are managers for the first time in their lives. The book presents many topics that delves into the various responsibilities of a manager (and there are many), and does so in a way where it is easily understandable. This is due to the writing style which seems like you're having a conversation

I have decided not to renew my National Geographic magazine subscription. It's a great magazine. I highly recommend it for the pictures, the really educational articles, and all the learning to be had. But (there's always a but, right?) beware, if you're OK with censors touching your PERSONAL PROPERTY, then go ahead, subscribe away.If you're like me, and you really resent having your own property

Snaked 1/2 a day off work last Friday to go shopping for my girlfriend's birthday gift. So I jetted off to MidValley and visited the Guess boutique. I was planning to get her a watch, and I found the perfect one.

Got back from teambuilding event over the weekend. One of my Neon Zebras is missing. Assume dead. Assume body consumed by ravenous shrimps. It's part of the very first pair of fishes in my tank, and I'm feeling quite sad.Anyway, visited the CTY aquarium 'shop' in Penang. Wait, that's like calling IKEA a shop. Alright, let's call it a mall, a mini one at that. Well, 3 stories, full of stuff for

With the recent news of Singaporeans being arrested and charged for posting racist stuff on the Internet, and probably their blogs, the Deputy Minister for Internal Security has warned that Malaysians face similar penalties.In an effort to try to find out how many blogs by Malaysian contains racial trash, I decided to use Google's Blog Search to do some research.I keyed in the term 'cina puki' to

In an effort to highlight stupid things that some politicians do or say (and there are so many), I kick it off with an article in The Star dated 19th September 2005, Kimma seeks Malay status for Indian Muslims. I rate this a 4/5 in terms of stupidity.First off, some important points in the article:Point 1:In the 2nd and 3rd paragraph:Kimma cited provisions in the Federal Constitution, which

The first week of the English Premier League is nearing its end. After this weekend's matches, I honestly feel disgusted and dirty, and disgraced as a supposed Manchester United fan.I own a fantasy football team in http://fantasy.premierleague.com, and due to my "kiasu-ness" and desire to gain more fantasy points, I chose to select players from rival teams (actually just Chelsea and Arsenal).

This weekend, I took my tank setup to newer levels, and this is all thanks to 3ric again. He let me have this DIY CO2 bottle, and his yeast and sugar.Ok, reason for needing some CO2 in the tank is so that my plants can grow healthier, and also be able to carry out photosynthesis.So this weekend, I could say I've taken my knowledge slightly further, for the long term betterment of my tank.First

So sarcastic! I like!But I honestly wonder, if other people not from UMNO-BN says something like this, even in a 'sarcastic' tone, I bet your ass the backlash would be furious. Guarantee at least a few newspaper articles with politicians who are experts of the constitution.Doh!

I know some of my posts are a bit long, but hey, most of them are gems in information.In my earlier post, Updates For July, I had a really funny joke in there, unfortunately, seemed like nobody got it. Read "TM Warns Against Porn" again, this time, with a little more creativity and open mind. I like to include subtle humor, and if you get it, good for you, and if you don't get it, too bad. But I

Was flipping through my latest issue of Time Magazine and they had an article about J.K. Rowling. I wasn't really paying much attention. I know I'm reading it, but I don't know what I'm reading. History lessons come to mind, anyone?!!!NO SPOILERS AHEAD!!!I got interested by this colorful Harry Potter sidebar article called "The Unanswered Questions".

It's 25 days since my last post, and it's already near the end of the month. Haven't been posting much lately because:1. I have been lazy to write. There's no issue that I want to discuss (ok, there are simmering issues, but I guess I'll just keep my mouth shut because Big Brother might be reading. Not that you can't read about them in the papers anyway).2. Nothing exciting happened to me this

The Nissan Sentra, according to my latest sources (ok, my Dad), has been sold. For what price, I do not know.Anyway, before it was sold:A week ago, an old friend was checking out used cars in the used car lot in Ipoh. He saw this awesome red and shiny Sentra, which looked to be still in good condition. So the salesman was showing him under the hood and all, until he realized the license plate

The past 2 months have seen a couple of new hatchbacks being released in the Malaysian market. Hatchbacks seem to be all the rage nowadays, so given the glut of choices, which would you choose (If a car salesman goes postal and points a shotgun to your head and forced you to buy one now, which would you choose)?

No, this is not going to be another rant at the establishment, so keep the daggers in their sheaths.It was 10.15pm by the time I arrived, and first thing I did was to check on the undisputed star of the office, the fish-killing, flesh-ripping, red lobster.

So over the weekend, I went to the Anthony Robbins seminar right. It's mostly about discovering/reaffirming your goals in life, what you want to achieve etc etc etc. So at the end of the seminar, the dude gave us a choice to take on a 10 day challenge, with 10 separate challenges in it. One of the challenges was to eliminate all dairy and meat from the diet, for 10 days. Claims that after the 10

On May 2005, the family's nearly 10 year old Nissan Sentra has been sold for a OK fair price of around Rm30,000. The car was originally used by Mum, then later, for a short moment by my younger sis, but eventually, passed on to me in the middle of 2003 for my use. The mileage last clocked out at around 146,000 km, which is not too bad for a 10 year old car(although when I first drove it, the

On May 7th 2005, Jeffery Loh passed away at 4am in Ipoh. My primary classmate and secondary schoolmate, I remember him as a very nice person who never seemed to have anything bad to say about people.
